I have what some of you might consider
a very silly question as it is one that
has probably been asked for decades....
How do they film people/objects in
front of a mirror without the camera
and crew showing up in the reflection?
With today's technology a question like
that would be a no-brainer. However, the
reason I even bring this question up is
that I have been watching a lot of classic
film and television lately on DVD and always
take notice of scenes involving mirrors.
Back in the early days of cinema I am
certain that lensing in front of mirrors
became a challenge for filmmakers.
Just curious.
